Problems with 2010 Nissan Maxima STRUCTURE

While driving on route 24 in brockton, ma on 2/16/2020 at approximately 1am, the hood of my car flew off and completely separated from my car. i immediately pulled over to confirm whether another driver was not behind me and to look at my car. the latch of the hood was still in place as well as the springs. my dash board did not indicate my hood was open. this all occured while on the highway driving towards my exit at approximately 50-60 mph.

I've noticed not just in mine but on other 2009-2011 nissan maximas undercarriage issues. i've asked a body shop for an estimate and they said they've done quite a few of those and it doesn't resemble normal wear and tear

Evap recall; severe rust; power steering is weakening; motor has extremely loud start; not safe to drive more than 2 miles - stopped driving today after the car's brakes and rotors were changed due to horrible rust issue

Instrument dashboard on top is melting/sticky all over causing the material to become very shiny therefore creating a safety issue. the glare during sunny day in south florida is causing a safety issue as i can't see pedestrians or certain vehicles when the sun hits the dashboard. the center console around the radio is cracking and separating near the passenger airbag creating a safety concern. vehicle was purchased used in 2012/2013 and this started to occur september 2017.

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 nissan maxima. the contact stated that the dashboard melted. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the dashboard was melting and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 17,000.

Takata recall the hood shakes tremendously when speeds are reached at 70+. the car shakes so bad that it seems as if the hood is going to come through the windshield if you don't decrease your speed. while driving down the highway and increasing speed to 65+ the hood starts to shake, i thought at first maybe that it was the wind but then i soon recognized this couldn't be the case because the sun was out and the wind wasn't blowing.

Driving vehicle at a speed of 60 mph when a portion of glass from the panoramic roof detached from the roof assembly. reported the issue to dealership on 2 different occasions about water leakage prior to this happening. dealer 1 stated they could not recreate issue. dealer 2 stated that a seal was causing a water leak but a weather seal would not cause a panoramic roof to detach. nissan still refuses to acknowledge a manufacturer defect even after the roof completely detached from the vehicle and is also unwilling to help their customers. this could have caused serious injury as i was on a major highway. please make this as a known issue and force nissan to release a recall or tsb at the minimum. the next person who this happens to may not be so lucky. there are also multiple reports of this same roof glass on this model exploding while driving. *tr

This is not a safety complaint. however, i purchased this 2010 nissan maxima one year ago. about one month after i purchased it, the paint started chipping off the bumper and now it looks terrible. i paid a lot of money for this vehicle and it was my ideal car and i definitely did not expect to have any issues with it whatsoever, especially one month after my purchase. now i am having second thoughts about the quality put into the exterior of the nissans. love the car itself but very disappointed with the quality. very disappointed and can't say that i will be purchasing another one. what's sad is that there is no warranty on the exterior when it was only a year and a half old. definitely not a good look. *tr
